    Hi All,

    When I bought my 2013 Crossrunner it had a Honda tall screen fitted which I removed because or the wind turbulence.  I replaced it with the original screen that doesn't have the buffeting of the tall screen, but doesn't give me much protection.  Not sure weather to fit an MRA Vario screen, which always seem to work for me, or Palmer adjusters and the Honda tall screen. Has anyone had experience of both?

    Cheers,

    Vexed issue - seems to be loads of threads on it.

    Seems to be how much of a bubble of still air you're after.

    For me Palmer adjusters and a puig screen work best

    Best of luck

     I had a MRA Varioscreen on my 2015, I'd have been better off sticking cardboard to the original, complete waste of 100 quid IMO. Sold it for £25 after a few weeks and still feel a bit guilty now asking for that much.
    It's easier to get more money than it is a day of your life back.

    Went out for a 60 mile ride last night wearing ear plugs, and the original screen seemed to be fine. It might be a different story when its raining hard though, but at the moment I'll stick with the original screen.

    Cheers,

    I had no issues with the original screen on my mk1 bike, only started to have issues, now solved, on my mk 2 machine
